Last July Judge Mary Ellen Ring imposed a ten year jail term, with two years suspended for a spate of armed robberies including one in which he left a shop worker in need of 24-hour care after stabbing him with a syringe.

These offences were carried out after the hit and run.

The twenty month term will run alongside the ten-year sentence meaning he will serve no extra time in prison.

"The sentence effectively runs concurrently, which means effectively that he won't serve one day for the death of Conor," Mr McGrattan said.

"This has added salt to [his parents'] wounds...there was a period before this man came forward."
